Hi,poppysue,
I am a new commer to Dave's. While searching for Blue nasturtium ,I hit on your thread.
I sowed several species of Tropaeolum including Blue nasturtium last fall ,but only T.lepidum germinated.

They seem to be tough to germinate.
I sowed them in November ,I think I should have sowed them
much earlier.This year I think I'll sow them by early October.

A friend of mine who is good at growing Tropaeolums told me there is not much difference between seeds being refrigerated and not being so in their germination .

This is my T. lepidum in this spring.
